Mendoza went to High Point from Creighton...is this what you are referring to? Position filled by Ryan Meek, formerly head coach of D-III Hendrix in Arkansas. New Creighton volunteer assistant is Micah Rhodes, formerly assistant coach of D-III Buena Vista. He replaces Kyle South, who became a paid assistant at Oral Roberts. Congrats to Ryan, pretty stand up guy. Leaves a tough spot to fill at Hendrix, especially this late. He did a pretty remarkable job getting that program from what he inherited years ago to the final four last year. Looks to be a future DI head coach. I guess congrats to Kyle as well. |

This is absolutely correct...after working with Misty on a couple of her "Dream in Gold" clinics I have no doubt that players will flock to her. My question is what will be her tolerance for the level of effort put in by players and the pile of organizational bull crap that coaching brings with it. In any sport- how many great players have turned into great coaches? I don't know the answer, that's why I'm asking. The NBA Finals had two former role players in Kerr and Lue, and that's being very courteous to Lue. I heard someone explain once that a big reason those kinds of guys become good coaches is because they had to put in so much extra as players that they do the same as coaches. In baseball, no one really. Most of the great players have flamed out badly as managers (most recently, Ryne Sandberg). Not even the great pitching coaches have been big-time pitchers. In football, there's been some success for former players--Landry, Ditka, Reeves, etc...but other than Ditka, are any Hall of Fame level as players? In basketball, Pat Riley was a great player. Larry Bird was successful as a coach--but outright told people that he left all the Xs and Os to his assistant coaches. |

Good, yes- but not great. I don't remember Riley as a player. In baseball now McGwire and Bonds are hitting coaches, say what you will about their careers. Paul Molitor was my favorite player in the early 1990's. He's still early into his MLB managerial career, so we'll see how Minnesota does. |

It was posted in the Hawaii thread, but I haven't seen it here yet. Lindsey Berg hired as new Hawaii assistant. That should be far enough away to not get plowed over by Destinee Hooker. |

Mattingly is a borderline hall of famer I think, and he's been a successful manager, Girardi made an all-star team and won the world series as a manager, Pete Rose owns the hit record and was respected as a manager prior to his other issues, and that's without even thinking about it. NBA has a bunch, Jason Kidd has done a very good job as a coach and will be a HOF player, Doc Rivers was an all-star, Lionel Hollins was an all-star and did well in Memphis, Kevin McHale was a hall of famer. Maybe none that will be hall of famers as both, but certainly a few that have been quite successful in each role. |

Maybe none that will be hall of famers as both, but certainly a few that have been quite successful in each role. Are you really using a fan-vote to determine actual greatness? Girardi and 'great' belong together only because they both start with 'G'. Girardi was 28% below league average for his career. Mattingly--who knows how his career will go. Pete Rose? Never won a division...that's not great managing (nor is putting yourself into the lineup just to reach 4,000 hits) The fact that over the course of the past 70 years of history and two names come up proves the point. Same for basketball....though Tomjonovich could probably be added to the list. 40-50 years and you name 3-4 people? Football--no other names? Nope--great players do NOT become great head coaches/managers. |

I guess we would have to clarify what a "great player" and "great coach" are. How about this, at least for the professional side- Hall of Fame players that have done well as coaches.

Winning NCAA, medal at Olympics, World, and Grand Prix for coaches, HOF for players. I would probably add NCAA Final 4 at least three times. |
